If it was bait then why even bother to come on here to comment. Answer me that?
I’m not immune to biting on bait.
(But I should just leave you in peace, I know)
So you are one of those player housing supporters that want this game to have a feature that might either fail hard or succeed and make money. That sounds like a huge gamble of the game resources where it would be better spent on creating more quality of life features and modernizing the game in terms of its architecture and HUD ui and its interface.
Creating more content where people can have alternative ways of gearing their toons instead of doing dungeons or raids or PvP. And making more story content to further progress the story ingame and not in books.
I’m one of the people who would have liked to see a continued evolution of the farm/garrison with possibly more housing features added over time, yes.
I’m not oblivious to the fact that garrisons were a feature that not everyone enjoyed as much as I did.
Every MMO that has had Player housing has been praised for including it and it has been hailed as one of the positives of said game. Yes other MMOs with housing have failed but not because of Housing. Players in WoW have been asking for this feature for over a decade. Saying it’s a huge gamble is either Disingenuous or just bad faith arguments for the sake of trying to attack something you don’t like.
You just said it yourself some games have succeed and others have failed. And by that that is a gamble. If WOW housing fails what then? They can’t undo it once it’s made.
Okay, let’s do a hypothetical here. What do you think will happen if Blizzard comes out and says flat out that they will never implement housing? What do you think will happen with all those who very much want housing? Who have been asking Blizzard for almost two decades to include it?
Now here’s scenario two, say they include it. It has a rough start. Players give Feedback. Do you think it can’t be fixed because it had a rough Start? Do you think that Blizzard can’t continue to iterate on something once the technology is developed?
Housing is a system that has so much depth to it and can be implemented into every aspect of this game. Decorations that drop from raids. Furniture made from Crafting. Achievements that reward different styles and interiors. Yes I said some games failed, but if you hadn’t CHERRY PICKED my words to suit your bad faith argument. You’d also have noticed that I said Housing isn’t what made them fail. Next time, don’t cherry pick my words, eat the whole pie.
I guess you don’t get the memo here don’t you once something fails people will automatically make videos or write an article about how the player housing has failed and guess what will happen next? The game will be a laughing stock so yeah if I was a decision maker I would play it safe and just make something that is safe and not something high risk. And what I mean by safe is by focusing on stuff that the game is good at.
Do you know how many articles and videos are made on a weekly basis that laugh or poke fun of WoW? Do you know how many there’ve been since TBC, the Expac I started in? If the game does nothing to grow and evolve then it will stagnate and die. I’m very glad you’re not a Blizzard Developer. Your way of thinking would be very bad for the future of the game.
My way of thinking is in every stockholder or investor mind high risk is not a good bet since if it fails you will lose it all. Also, focusing on content doesn’t stagnate nor it’ll hurt the game long term look at the classic era of things no systems or whatever else and yet it has survived all those years.
Yeah I’m not going to waste time arguing with you. You have a good night. And when Blizzard finally does implement housing. I hope you actually have some fun with it.
I really hope they don’t place down that bet because they will regret it if it flops.
Yeah, sure buddy. When they do. You can crash on my couch. Free sodas.
Keep dreaming. They should just focus on creating more content instead of some feature that might either fail or succeed which I wouldn’t take that risk.
I see what your argument is about. You’re one of those who thinks you’ll lose some kind of endgame progression if Blizzard gives people housing. I get it now. Welp you keep living in fear of that. And when Housing isn’t a flop. You can come up with some new conspiracy.
You’re one of those who thinks that housing will somehow solve something when it might just create more problems instead of the opposite.
Have a good night man. I’ll see you when Housing comes out.
If it hasn’t happened it won’t even happen in the near term. Just being realistic.
Like say void elves…
